Description: NIH Neuroscience Series Seminar

Dr. Spruston Lab studies the hippocampus, with an emphasis on uncovering the diversity and complexity of cells and synapses that allow this brain structure to contribute to memory-guided behavior, such as spatial navigation and emotional responses. They use a combination of approaches – including a variety of imaging methods, next-generation RNA sequencing, in vitro and in vivo electrophysiology, and behavior – to study the diversity of cell types in the mouse hippocampus. Their research has implications for understanding how memories are stored and recalled, as well as diseases that affect these processes.
